Go to Post This isn't an engineering fair and demonstration, it's FRC. Defense is part of the game. You can't expect a good FRC team to just sit there and get clobbered by a full-court shooter; they're going to engineer a solution to the problem. - Kevin Sevcik [more]

True, and I took that into account when saying that I don't believe any will.
Since, according to the earlier poll on the subject, only 16% of robots will be running a "wide" base, I don't believe we'll see very many, if any, cantilevered wide drives. You can just call it a hunch.

'lil Lavery was right in that you should design for a 38 incher anyway... just in case.

We'll just have to wait and see if my hunch is correct.

Re: Drive Train Size for Ramp

I actually meant track width--thank you for correcting me and also redirecting me to that other poll.
